We know how valuable your time is and when you get the change to sneak away with your family, you want a fantastic experience. That is why we have worked so hard to make our Middle Yough trip exceptional. Think of your raft guide as a family entertainer. Along with their knowledge of the area, the river, and safety & first aid, they know how to have fun! The contents of their "family fun bag" will remain a secret until you are on the water! Our only words of caution: Your kids may want to return year after year!

GUIDED MIDDLE YOUGH GUIDED TRIP: Between Confluence and Ohiopyle lies The Middle Yough,a step milder than the Lower Yough and appropriate for children as young as 4. This trip is for those who want to concentrate on fun and leave details (like lunch) to us. Uncertain about taking the kids on the river? Do so under the watchful eye of our professional guides. All trips are equipped with emergency equipment and radio contact with our base.

PEDAL & PADDLE: We make your vacation easier by combining two of your favorite activities into a single day. Bike the gentle Youghiogheny River Trail from Ohiopyle to the Middle Yough launch area. We will meet you there and swap your bikes for boats. Hop in a boat and paddle your way down the Youghiogheny and back to Ohiopyle. Stop, swim and eat lunch along the river banks and enjoy a great day with your family & friends. Choose from rafts or duckies. This is a non-guided trip. If you are interested in a guide, please call us for details.

MIDDLE YOUGH RENTALS: Enjoy the Middle Yough on your own time. Reserve your raft, shredder or duckie and take it at your own pace. Pack a lunch, bring your fishing rods or just sit back, float down the river and relax. Have your own boat already? Call us for shuttle details.

MIDDLE YOUGH FISHING TRIPS : The Middle Yough is also an excellent fishing section. Click here to find out more about our guided fishing trips or Orvis products at our store.

This five to seven mile trip offers the perfect introduction to rafting. Depending on the water level, we run it using rafts or ducks. Spring generally brings higher water and therefore rafts are used. Ducks are the craft of choice during the summer. However, regardless of the craft, the thrill and pleasure will be the same.
Trip format: Depending on water level the day of the trip, guide assisted in self-bailing rafts, ducks or ThrillKats™.
